• Hello and welcome to MSFC. We are a small and close knitted community who specialises in modding the game Star Trek Armada 2 and the Fleet Operations modification, however we have an open field for discussing a number of topics including movies, real life events and everything in-between.

    Being such a close community, we do have some restrictions, including all users required to be registered before being able to post as well as all members requiring to have participated in the community for sometime before being able to download our modding files to name the main ones. This is done for both the protection of our members and to encourage new members to get involved with the community. We also require all new registrations to first be authorised by an Administrator and to also have an active and confirmed email account.

Written by actor Noel Clarke (Mickey in the parent Doctor Who series).
It was not as good as I expected it too be (I was actually much more impressed with the trailer of it) but it does get a passing grade from me.
I find this to be Burn Gorman's best performance in the series to date and what a surprise on what happened on his visit to the Weevils at the end.
I thought Gwen's use of the amnesia pill to Rhys was really reckless. Given what happened in They Keep Killing Suzie, Gwen should know better.

Watching Combat again this time on 10 on Australian TV, the episode is better than from my previous viewing.

In the commentary for the season 1 episode Combat, co-producer Chris Chibnall asked whether the balaclava was enough to cover Alex Hassell's (Mark Lynch) face.

Didn't notice that it was him on first viewing but noticeable on repeated viewings.

It is too bad that the episode's writer Noel Clarke was not on the commentary or on the corresponding Torchwood Declassified episode.
